A Different Approach ...

Today, I made a decision to change up how I write this blog. I create many more quilt block patterns than I have featured on this blog, but it gets to be such a time-consuming activity to find quotes that sort of go with the "theme" of the featured block, that I have been lax in doing so.

So, I have decided that I will post new quilt block patterns as I create them, (or that I have not featured thus far), along with a sort of "Quote of the Day" that I find inspirational, funny, insightful or whatever/however the mood strikes me that day. This way, I believe my blog posts will become more frequent and you will become aware of new free quilt block patterns on the Patchwork Square website.

So, without further ado ... (I have always wanted to say that) ...

Today's Inspirational Quote of the Day

  • "The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be."
    ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Featured Free Quilt Block Pattern

Rolling Pin quilt block
The Rolling Pin quilt block can be a good choice for teachers to expand on how to use half square triangles in a patch differently than making a single square using the two triangles, as is the most common practice.

The half square triangles are featured in the flying geese units and the square-in-the-square units.
